| There is no need to change this. They can't change the hard points anyway, they'll only keep playing with the lights and what not, no need. Keep the classic look, but make the tech just as any other new Mercedes. Thats the key to keeping the G relevant. M

| Hell NO!! I think changing the shape of the boxy angles to rounded ones will be a suicide. Please keep it as it is and play around with the lights only. And when it comes to pedestrian safety, this car has been around for what, 30 years? why is it only an issue now. And if it is an issue then I say screw pedestrians who dare to cross in front of a G or get hit by it.  |

| please don't do this to this car either kill it or leave it its a car of the past, forcing it into the future with such harsh design changes is mindless and would definitely hurt its image |
